DEAL SAFELY
To avoid incidents of fraud, always deal locally with someone in your area.
Speak with them on the phone if desirable and on landline where possible.
Basically, avoid all deals involving money transfer or shipping of goods
abroad.
If you start dealing with someone 'locally' and somewhere down the line
he/she changes their story, asking you to wire money abroad for whatever
reason, or offering payment via a cashiers cheque or bank draft through
him/her or via another party then you should become supicious and withdraw
from the transaction as that usually is a sign of fraud.
Paypal
Services like paypal can help but it's not fraudproof. If you use paypal,
check their Account Status and if they are Verified Paypal members or not.
Proof of despatch of goods via a reputable courier can help you if there
is a dispute. Please visit paypal.com for eligibility info or Seller/Buyer
Protection and on Verified members.
Reporting Fraud
Please forward any suspicious listings to us. If you have been scamed,
please contact your local law enforcement agency and report the seller
to us.
